Family-owned Irish hotel group, The Address Collective has acquired a historic building on Glasgow’s Renfield Street for its fifth luxury boutique hotel that will comprise 95 bedrooms and create over 80 jobs, following a £9m investment.
The classical, listed building is the first in the group’s portfolio to be located in Scotland and represents a “significant” expansion milestone for the independent group.
The building, which is six storeys high, was originally designed and built for Lancashire Insurance Company in the 1890s.
Set to officially launch in early 2024, facilities at The Address Glasgow will include a wellness spa complete with gym, plunge pool, heated loungers and a Himalayan salt rock sauna, as well as meeting rooms. The property will also include a restaurant and cocktail bar, North.
Brian McGettigan, co-owner of The Address Collective, said: “Our commitment to the city of Glasgow goes beyond hospitality. We’re creating over 80 jobs and investing in the local community because we believe in the bright future of this dynamic city.
“We’ve chosen Glasgow because we love the people, the culture and can’t wait to raise the bar for luxury stays in Scotland.”
The group’s future hotels under development include The Address Capel Street opening in early 2025.
